State of the ARC: March 2021
State of the ARC is a meme hosted by Avalinah’s Books in which we round up our ARCs and attempt to wrangle them into something approaching order. Sometimes it’s like herding cats. I have a flock of ARCs coming in in April and May. There are so many intriguing books coming out this spring! So … Continue reading State of the ARC: March 2021
Sunday Sum-Up: March 21, 2021
I have lived in Nebraska all my life, and thus have experienced some strange weather. Christmas Day tornadoes. Softball-sized hail. Derechos. Thundersnow. All sorts of weather weirdness. But Monday brought my first encounter with muddy rain. A dust storm in Texas sent dust and dirt high into the atmosphere where it combined with a storm … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 21, 2021

Sunday Sum-Up: March 7, 2021
Quiet week around here. Sunny. Warm. Productive. Birthday-like. While it wasn't on the exact day of my birthday, I went downtown on my day off.

Tag: Twenty Questions
Mary at Mary and the Words tagged me yesterday, so I'm going to do this today. She saw it on Jessica's blog, The Awkward Book Blogger, and from there could not track down the original source. I didn't know what else to write about this week, so let's do a tag! How many books are … Continue reading Tag: Twenty Questions
February Summary, March Preview
In spite of the excessive cold and what felt like near-constant snowfall, February was actually a pretty good month. I read a lot of books. I got a lot of things done. I did a lot of baking. The cats were happy to snuggle (they aren't usually). So I have basically nothing to complain about. … Continue reading February Summary, March Preview
Sunday Sum-Up: February 28, 2021
We had a little snowstorm last Sunday, and you can bet I went for a walk in the middle of it. It was so quiet and beautiful that I spent about an hour and a half wandering about. Definitely worth the cold fingers. Once I got home, I stayed home where it was warm and … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: February 28, 2021
